Why did the Dallas Cowboys cut Mexican player Isaac Alarcón?

Isaac Alarcón was released by the Dallas Cowboys before the start of the 2023-24 NFL season and thus put an end to the Mexican’s dream of shining on the team.

In August 2023, Mexican Isaac Alarcón received bad and unexpected news after the Dallas Cowboys informed him that he was part of the list of four players who would be cut and, therefore, would not play the season that was about to begin.

“There is no room for fear, there is no time to waste. When God calls you respond,” was what the offensive tackle said on his social media after being left out. Although the official reason for this decision is unknown, according to AS, injuries, low production or the need to change a player for another with certain skills is what can lead to the cut.

In the case of Alarcón, the last reason described is the one that could fit his situation, since he did not have any injuries. The Monterrey native arrived at this NFL franchise in 2020, as part of the International Player Pathway Program.

“Isaac can really leave his mark on this defense, I like the length and strength he has,” coach Dan Quinn said about the player when everything was going very well for him. He also classified him as “a more athletic kid than the typical defensive tackle.” We know that it will take us some time to develop all his instincts, but in a player like that he is definitely worth the time invested.

Regarding what he had to do to be part of the Vaqueros, the Mexican told the press: “I think the most complicated thing has been raising my athletic level.” He also detailed: «I have had to lose weight, I have had to be more explosive. Also in the gym, gaining weight and all that.

Today the player is a free agent and at 25 years old, it is still unknown how his professional future will continue.
